Autism
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.

Autism
David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
I have extensive experience working with clients who are autistic. I work with autistic clients through individual therapy, couples therapy, group therapy, and psychological evaluations. I help clients address adjusting to a neurodivergent diagnosis later in life, unmasking, as well as address autistic burnout, all from a neurodiversity-affirming lens. As an autistic psychologist, I can often share my own experiences and personally relate with my clients. With my PSYPACT license, I am able to provide online psychological evaluations for autism.

Fayetteville is home to Fort Bragg (briefly renamed Fort Liberty from 2023 to 2025) — one of the largest Army installations in the world — making it one of the most military-oriented cities in the United States, with a therapy community substantially defined by the needs of active-duty soldiers, veterans, and military families. Therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, combat-related grief, and the dynamics of repeated deployment and reintegration are exceptionally well represented, and many practices are built specifically around the military community. Cape Fear Valley Health provides institutional mental health resources alongside a VA medical center that serves the surrounding region. Fayetteville's civilian therapy community serves a population that also navigates the economic and social challenges of a city heavily dependent on military spending and vulnerable to base realignment decisions.
